While looking for something else on the Web, I found this page. Jim Gallant, in Washington, is a tinker extraordinaire. He welded a pair of matching footbikes from some 10-speeds he bought at a yard sale, and turned his son’s first bicycle into a 12″ scooter.

Very NICE! The beauty of his design is, there isn’t any “tube” bending involved. So someone with basic welding skills can do something the same or similar….Besides, he recycled something that may have ended up in the trash. Good for him!
